  • Arctic fox<br />
Alopex lagopus<br />
NORWAY / SVALBARD<br />
The Arctic fox comes in two colour schemes<br />
– light grey and bluish-black. It is an opportunist<br />
that eats almost anything, but when it has a<br />
choice, it specialises in small rodents and birds.<br />
It is a common animal on Greenland, Iceland,<br />
Svalbard and in the Russian Arctic.<br />
In Finland and Scandinavia, it was driven close<br />
to extinction by being hunted and trapped for its<br />
valuable fur. Despite over 75 years of protection,<br />
the mainland Scandinavian population still<br />
remains on the brink of extinction, with only<br />
some 200 adult individuals left in the wild. Supplementary<br />
feeding programmes during winter, and<br />
reintroductions from captive breeding facilities<br />
finally seem to be having some real success. <br />
In 2011 no less than 700 pups were born in the wild.<br />
Nature conservation works!<br />
This is one of the species that Rewilding Europe wants considers <br />
to help reintroduce and restock in the huge Greater Laponia region in Sweden and Norway.<br />

  • Crinoid on Gorgonia. Expedition "In the footsteps of Alfred Wallace" to Bird's neck peninsular, Papua Barat province, Indonesia<br />
<br />
Ancient arms - Three feeding arms hanging down from a crinoid, a marine animal, which here clings itself onto a coral sea fan. These ancient animals are often called sea lilies and they live in both shallow water and as depth water as 9 000 meters (30 000 feet). This variant have both small legs and longer feeding arms, and they can also actively swim buy undulating their feeding arms in an amazing swimming style.<br />
<br />
There are some 600 crinoid species in the ocean. Long time ago they were much more abundant and diverse, and limestone beds dating to the Paleozoic are almost entirely made up of disarticulated crinoid fragments.
